My Energy poly bushings make noise when torquing the chassis such as entering a driveway at an angle. I'd suggest greasing them before install.

I think ABC performance makes the solid mounts for the Chevelle, you might check them out.

Heep,

I will shoot you a price on aluminum ones, we just got a CNC lathe so we can drop the price considerably due to time needed to crank em out!

If you can wait a little bit till its setup, I will hook you up!

Tyler,
Just let me know price and time frame. I can set the body with rubbe and go back and replace with the aluminum ones later. I just can't fit fenders and stuff until I get whatever I am going to use.

Thanks,
HEEP

For sure, I understand how it goes! It will take us a bit of time to setup the new HAAS lathe and get them cranking out. I will see if our machinist wants to do another set by hand in the time being. Maybe we can work something out if your willing to "test".

I will do my best, give me till monday afternoon to get an answer!

Tyler, I've been looking for solid mounts for my 67 Belair. Would these fit? I'd be willing to buy a rubber set and send them to you but now, after reading, I don't know how accurate they'd be in assessing.

Tyler,
I'm sure we could work something out. What kind of testing would you need feedback on? Believe me I will have plenty of time. I do want to get the body back on in the next week or so, but I want need solid for that.

I got you pm. I'll reply back on it also.

Thanks,
HEEP

The polys will ride a little better the solids will give you a little bit better feedback.
